Morget is an icy, barren vacuum world, with no overt population, government, or law level, which would warrant hazardous environment precautions if anyone lived here.

  • Its surface is ice-capped with little or no atmosphere and nearly all of its water frozen.
  • This world could be populated by a determined group if they had an inclination to do so...
  • It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Vilian Subsector of Astron Sector.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]

Morget has a solitary primary star.

  • It is a red main sequence.

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Morget is a Meso World between 5,600km and 7,200km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.32G and 0.46G. The horizon will appear about 3.6km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Morget has a pressure of less than 0.001 atmospheres which requires the use of a Vacc Suit. TL–8 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Morget has 35-45% of its surface covered by ice, either in vast sheets or contained deep within craters or fractures on the surface. Wilderness refueling is possible. Water for the inhabitants can be got by mining and melting ice.

  • The surface of the world is composed of a crust of ice many kilometers thick.
  • Much of the surface is cratered and covered in regolith and thick dust of meteoric origin, leaving only around 40% of the icy outer shell exposed.
  • Below the outer icy shell is a world-ocean of liquid water.

Mainworld Geography and Topography[edit]

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

  • Locally, detailed maps may be available.
  • Verified updated charts are constantly sought.
  • Detailed survey data commands premium prices.
